- Serves 4
Ingredients
- 1 tub mascarpone
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- 2 tbsp kahlua
- 1 tsp vanilla
- for frying butter
- to serve chocolate-covered coffee beans
COFFEE PANCAKES
- 225g plain flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tsp instant espresso powder
- 2 eggs
- 25g butter, melted and cooled
- 200ml whole milk
MOCHA SYRUP
- 85g soft brown sugar
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 tsp espresso powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method
- STEP 1
To make the pancakes put the flour, baking powder and espresso powder in a bowl and stir together. In a different bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter and milk. Gradually stir the wet mix into the dry to make a batter. Leave to sit while you make everything else.
- STEP 2
To make the mocha syrup, put the sugar, cocoa powder and espresso powder in a pan with 100ml water and heat, whisking, until glossy and sugar has melted. Stir in the vanilla.
- STEP 3
Mix the mascarpone with the icing sugar, Kahlúa and vanilla.
- STEP 4
Heat a non-stick pan and brush it with butter. Pour enough batter into the pan to make a thick American-style pancake (about 10cm diameter). Wait for about a minute until the surface starts to form bubbles and has set, then flip the pancake over and cook until golden.
- STEP 5
Remove to a plate, then brush the pan with more butter and repeat with the rest of the pancake batter (you might need to adjust the heat as you cook the pancakes).
- STEP 6
To serve, make a pancake tower (putting a dollop of mascarpone between each one) and drizzle with the mocha syrup. Add a few chocolate covered coffee beans to decorate.
